Stock by Attribute v4.0 addon for v1.3.5-1.3.9

[Svanis]

Hey all!

I previously posted about stock avail in the product info page.

Ex.

XS [Not in stock]
S [In stock]
M [In stock]

and so on..
Was this implemented in later versions of the contrib?
If so; is there a switch for it because I can't get it to work after upgrading a ZC from 1.2.7 - 1.3.5, the old shop had a previous version of danielcor's contrib..

When installing Stock by Attribute to an existing Zen Cart that already has a lot of attributes, what happens to those pre-existing attributes? Do they just require stock quantities to be added to them after the add-on install?

Well, I first tried editing the file. Apparently I did that wrong. I downloaded the new version and uploaded the files. Things still weren't working. I went and deleted the table, overwrote the core zencart files to get things back to the way they were before the install. I then tried to install the sql patch and it gave me an error message saying there were duplicate entries. So, what do I do now. I'm afraid I've really screwed things up.

It's not as bad as it seems. In fact it's probably all OK. You can ignore the duplicate error message. Although you deleted the table, the original installation will have also placed a flag in the admin config flag (the lowstock flag). This is almost certainly what the error message refers to as it will still be there from the original installation (but does no harm, so no need to get it out, even if you uninstall.

By running the SQL again you will probably (despite the error message which come later) have recreated the table. Just go ahead with re-installing the files and hopefully all will be OK this time.

Good luck.

Sorry Svanis. This question has been done to death and there's lots of previous posts on it, so only the quick answer this time. Stock on the product info page isn't included in the mod becuase there isn't a soluton for it that works witt mutliple attributes. There is a solution posted in an archive thread references to which can be found by searching on "Grayson".

Exactly right.

my apologies if this question has been asked...

i just installed stock by attribute. i am using 1.3.6 and installed sba 4.3.1.

i see the sba option under the catalogue pull-down. but unfortunately i get this error message:

"Sorry, your security clearance does not allow you to access this resource.

Please contact your site administrator if you believe this to be incorrect.

Sorry for any inconvenience."

please advise.

thank you!!!

[paisleydi]

never mind on my last post about security clearance.

i figured it out! i am so proud of myself. maybe i am getting the hang of it yet.

thank you!

Is there any way to automatically populate the entire product selection to 1 of each attribute combination? or any number for that matter? or do I have to go through all of the products one at a time?

Hi paisleydi

Well done for sorting this out. For the benefit of anybody else who may run into this problem ... I'm guessing that you are also running Admin Profiles and hadn't given yourself permission to access Stock by Attribute.

I'm afraid not. However, what you would like to do is just one step beyond a request that has been made before to automatically set up each combination. You're just asking to have a user-defined default for those combinations. I'm sure that this will be considered when this mod is replaced by an official Zen Cart facility.
